Anderson, Jodi Lynn: May Bird

"Shy, precocious May Bird wants nothing more than to be accepted. One day she falls through a lake into the Ever After, a world of ghosts. As she journeys through fantastic lands, she gathers an unusual group of new friends who join together to overcome the chillingly evil Bo Cleevil and find their way home."

Andreyev, Leonid: Lazarus

The story picks up where the biblical story leaves off-- what happens to Lazarus after he is brought back to life? There's no attempt at a description that's gonna give the story justice, it is something you need to experience for yourself. Link: https://www.eastoftheweb.com/short-stories/UBooks/Laza841.shtml

Basye, Dale E.: Precocia

"Dale E. Basye sends Milton and Marlo to Precocia, the circle reserved for kids who grow up too fast, for their latest hilarious escapade in Heck.

When Bea "Elsa" Bubb, the Principal of Darkness, tells Milton and Marlo Fauster they've gotten too big for their britches, she sends them to Precocia, the circle of Heck for smartypants kids who grow up too fast. There, the children learn adult jobs. William the Kid teaches bill collection. Mozart teaches commercial jingles. And all the students are forced to act, dress, and talk like little adults. Soon, the Fausters realize that Precocia's vice principals Napoleon and Cleopatra want more than to hasten adulthood--they seem to want to eliminate childhood altogether. Can Milton and Marlo figure out their plan in time to stop it?"

Includes depictions of a horrifying alternate reality where people want to age and wither as fast as possible!

Bierce, Ambrose: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge

We learn that a man is about to be hanged by a Union captain in the middle of a bridge over raging water in Northern Alabama. After learning how he ended up there, the man is awakened by the cold current of the river, having lost consciousness after the noose broke and he fell from the bridge. His executioners are firing at him from the bridge, he suffers a gunshot wound, comes up for air, dives back under, only to see a cannonball land within two yards. He thinks he's doomed, but then seems to be ejected from the river onto a bank, out of sight and firing range. But then he hears gunshots, escapes through the forest, taking backroads to return to his home. He seems to greet his wife, but then feels a sharp blow on his neck, sees a blinking white light, and all falls to silence and darkness. The end of the story reveals that Farquhar's broken body is still swinging from the side of Owl Creek Bridge, where he died, after all.

Bunin, Ivan: The Gentleman from San Francisco

A 58-year-old American from San Francisco, having acquired a great fortune, sets off with his wife and daughter on a world tour. After a luxurious cruise, they arrive in Naples, where he is dismayed by the unusually bad winter weather and finds that the city does not meet his expectations. They then go to Capri, where he abruptly dies in the lobby of his fancy hotel, causing a stir among the rich clientele. The second half of the story is concerned with the change in the once-deferential staff's attitude towards the gentleman, and in the dehumanizing way in which his body is treated as it makes its journey out of Italy.

The Gentleman From San Francisco is a great reminder that death can come anytime, anyplace. The Gentleman could be anyone, which is why I believe the character remains unnamed throughout the story.

Christie, Agatha: And Then There Were None

Undoubtedly Christie's scariest mystery, the novel represents a countdown for ten murderers on an island, as one by one they all die according to the dictates of a creepy nursery rhyme.

Christie, Agatha: Curtain

"Arthritic and immobilized, Poirot calls on his old friend Captain Hastings to join him at Styles to be the eyes and ears that will feed observations to Poirot's still razor sharp mind. Though aware of the criminal's identity, Poirot will not reveal it to the frustrated Hastings, and dubs the nameless personage 'X'. Already responsible for several murders, X, Poirot warns, is ready to strike again, and the partners must work swiftly to prevent imminent murder."

It's a book that was meant to be published posthumously whats more End-like than that?

Spoilers: The main villain tricks and manipulates people into killing each other(An End avatar, perhaps?). 'X' is so good that he almost makes Hastings into a murderer and makes Poirot into one. Poirot also dies in this one.

Cook, Eliza: Song of the Worm

Banger worm poem. https://rpo.library.utoronto.ca/content/song-worm

Enriquez, Mariana: Alguien camina sobre tu tumba (someone walks over your grave)

This book brings together a series of very particular travel chronicles around the world. The author travels countries and continents to visit something very specific and perhaps unusual: cemeteries. Famous and history-laden cemeteries such as Montparnasse in Paris, Highgate in London or the Jewish cemetery in Prague, and other hidden, decrepit, remote or secretly beautiful graves of famous people -Elvis' in Memphis, Marx in London- extravagant epitaphs, mourning sculptures, sensual angels and an inexhaustible string of legends and stories.

Gaiman, Neil: The Graveyard Book

It tells the story of the boy Nobody "Bod" Owens, who is adopted and reared by the supernatural occupants of a graveyard after his family is brutally murdered.

***

The boy gets raised by ghosts.

Godwin, Tom: The Cold Equations

The story of a pilot who finds a girl stowed away on his spaceship, which is delivering lifesaving medicine to a distant frontier world. The fuel had been carefully measured out, the weight precisely calculated -- and none of it accounted for the stowaway.

Hill, Joe: The Black Phone (from the book 20th Century Ghosts)

Thirteen-year-old Finney is kidnapped by a man named The Grabber. Trapped in a basement room, the boy's only hope may lie in a mysterious disconnected black phone hanging on the basement wall. The phone rings at night with the whispers of the kidnapper's previous (and now dead) victims.

Hurley, Tonya: Ghostgirl

The book is about high school senior Charlotte Usher, a young teenager who dreams of becoming popular in school, but before she gets the chance of that or asking her crush Damen out, she dies from choking on a gummy bear. What follows is a Tim Burton-esque story in which Charlotte is admitted to Dead Ed (a special education class for newly dead teens who have unresolved issues they must confront before they can move on), befriends a goth girl who can see ghosts, Scarlet, and comes to terms with her own death.

Huxley, Aldous: After Many a Summer Dies the Swan A Hollywood millionaire with a terror of death, whose personal physician happens to be working on a theory of longevity - these are the elements of Aldous Huxley's caustic and entertaining satire on man's desire to live indefinitely. With his customary wit and intellectual sophistication, Huxley pursues his characters in their quest for the eternal, finishing on a note of horror.

Ibbotson, Eva: Dial-a-Ghost

The Dial-a-Ghost Agency finds good homes for ghosts. And Fulton and Frieda Snodde-Brittle are looking for a few frightening ghosts to "accidentally" scare their young cousin and heir, Oliver, to death. The ladies at the Dial-a-Ghost Agency have the perfect match: the Shriekers, two bloodstained and bickering horrors. But thanks to a mix-up at the agency, the Wilkinsons, a kind family of ghosts, arrive instead. Can they put a stop to the Snodde-Brittles' schemes before it's too late?

Kedzie, Robert: Shadows from the Wall of Death: Facts and Inferences Prefacing a Book of Specimens of Arsenical Wall Papers

The book warns of the dangers of once-commonly used arsenic-pigmented wallpaper. The book also contains 86 samples of said wallpaper. Due to the dangerous amount of arsenic in the work, only five of the original 100 copies have survived. Most copies were destroyed by the recipient libraries. Doesn't even need to be a Leitner to kill you.

King, Stephen: Pet Sematary

Louis Creed, a doctor from Chicago, moves to a house near the small town of Ludlow, Maine along with his wife Rachel, their two young children, Ellie and Gage, and Ellie's cat, Winston Churchill ("Church"). Their neighbor, an elderly man named Jud Crandall, warns Louis and Rachel about the highway that runs past their house; it's used by trucks from a nearby chemical plant that often pass by at high speeds. A few weeks after the Creeds move in, Jud takes the family on a walk in the woods behind their home. There, a well-tended path leads to a pet cemetery (misspelled "sematary") where the town's children bury their deceased animals.

After Church is run over while the kids are visiting their grandparents with Rachel for Thanksgiving, Jud leads Louis beyond the deadfall to an ancient burial ground that was once used by the Mi'kmaqs, a Native American tribe. Following Jud's instructions, Louis buries the cat and constructs a cairn. The following afternoon, the cat returns home. However, while he used to be vibrant and lively, he now acts ornery and "a little dead", in Louis's words.

Before long, the Creed family suffers an unfathomable tragedy, and Louis is forced to confront the enormity of his grief and ask himself just how far he's willing to go to make his family whole again. In that quest, Louis will discover the truth of Judd's chilling advice: "Sometimes, dead is better."

***

The premise of this book is that there is a place out in the woods that if you bury a dead animal, it will come back to life - but it comes back Wrong. And if you were to do it to a person, something else would come back, in their body, in their place; something eldritch and evil. I'm sure someone else has already done a better submission of it with a more fleshed out synopsis but I actually want to nominate it because of this thing Stephen King does where he makes your blood run cold by dropping, in the middle of a completely innocent paragraph, "And now Gage, who had less than two months to live, laughed shrilly and joyously." It's chilling and inevitable and you don't have any way to stop it.

This book deals with death in a lot of ways, some of them positive and healthy but most of them /definitively not/. It's very Leitner because of how it makes you think about death conceptually from a lot of different angles, but in the end appreciate its finality. Because the alternative is worse.

***

When the Creeds move into a beautiful old house in rural Maine, it all seems too good to be true: physician father, beautiful wife, charming little daughter, adorable infant son-and now an idyllic home. As a family, they've got it all...right down to the friendly car. But the nearby woods hide a blood-chilling truth-more terrifying than death itself-and hideously more powerful. The Creeds are going to learn that sometimes dead is better.

Klune, T.J.: Under the Whispering Door

Welcome to Charon's Crossing. The tea is hot, the scones are fresh, and the dead are just passing through.

When a reaper comes to collect Wallace from his own funeral, Wallace begins to suspect he might be dead. And when Hugo, the owner of a peculiar tea shop, promises to help him cross over, Wallace decides he’s definitely dead.

But even in death he’s not ready to abandon the life he barely lived, so when Wallace is given one week to cross over, he sets about living a lifetime in seven days.

Hilarious, haunting, and kind, Under the Whispering Door is an uplifting story about a life spent at the office and a death spent building a home.

Kraus, Daniel: The Death and Life of Zebulon Finch

Synopsis: May 7, 1896. Dusk. A swaggering seventeen-year-old gangster named Zebulon Finch is gunned down on the shores of Lake Michigan. But after mere minutes in the void, he is mysteriously resurrected.

His second life will be nothing like his first.

Zebulon’s new existence begins as a sideshow attraction in a traveling medicine show. From there, he will be poked and prodded by a scientist obsessed with mastering the secrets of death. He will fight in the trenches of World War I. He will run from his nightmares—and from poverty—in Depression-era New York City. And he will become the companion of the most beautiful woman in Hollywood.

Love, hate, hope, and horror—Zebulon finds them. But will he ever find redemption?

Propaganda: As stated in the synopsis, Zebulon is killed and, for no apparent reason, comes back to life. It is more like in death, though; he is essentially a very-slowly-rotting corpse who walks. He discovers that he has the power to look at people in the eyes and show them their last moments, which traumatizes them. Finally, in both books Zebulon is surrounded by and responsible for many deaths.

Lovecraft, H.P.: The Alchemist

The story is recounted by the protagonist, Count Antoine de C, in the first person. Hundreds of years ago, Antoine's noble ancestor was responsible for the death of a dark wizard, Michel Mauvais. The wizard's son, Charles le Sorcier, swore revenge on not only him but all his descendants, cursing them to die on reaching the age of 32.

The protagonist recounts how his ancestors all died in some mysterious way around the age of 32. The line has dwindled and the castle has been left to fall into disrepair, tower by tower. Finally, Antoine is the only one left, with one poor servant, Pierre, who raised him, and a tiny section of the castle with a single tower is still usable. Antoine has reached adulthood, and his 32nd year is approaching.

His servant eventually dies, leaving him completely alone, and he begins exploring the ruined parts of the castle. He finds a trapdoor in one of the oldest parts. Below, he discovers a passage with a locked door at the end. Just as he turns to leave, he hears a noise behind him and sees that the door is open and someone is standing in it. The man attempts to kill him but Antoine kills him first. His dying words reveal that he is none other than Charles, who actually managed to successfully fabricate the elixir of life, enabling him to personally fulfill the curse generation after generation.

Lovecraft, H.P.: Cool Air

The short story revolves around an unnamed writer who moves into a dodgy apartment building in New York. Over time, he befriends his mysterious upstairs tenant, an old, reclusive physician who never leaves his room, which he keeps at a perpetual 55-56°. In spite of this newfound friendship, the narrator nevertheless finds something unsettling about the peculiar old man, who has a rather disconcerting obsession with the subject of death...

To say much more would spoil the plot twist. The story can be read online here: https://www.hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/ca.aspx

Lumley, Brian: Necroscope

“DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES…

Except to Harry Keogh, Necroscope. And what they tell him is horrifying.

In the Balkan mountains of Rumania, a terrible evil is growing. Long buried in hallowed ground, bound by earth and silver, the master vampire schemes and plots. Trapped in unlife, neither dead nor living, Thibor Ferenczy hungers for freedom and revenge.

The vampire's human tool is Boris Dragosani, part of a super-secret Soviet spy agency. Dragosani is an avid pupil, eager to plumb the depthless evil of the vampire's mind. Ferenczy teaches Dragosani the awful skills of the necromancer, gives him the ability to rip secrets from the mind and bodies of the dead.

Dragosani works not for Ferenczy's freedom but world domination. He will rule the world with knowledge taken from the dead.

His only opponent: Harry Koegh, champion of the dead and the living.

To protect Harry, the dead will do anything--even rise from their graves!"

Main character power is communicating with the dead very End-coded

Márquez, Gabriel García: Crónica de una muerte anunciada (Chronicle of a death foretold)

A man returns to the town where a baffling murder took place 27 years earlier, determined to get to the bottom of the story. Just hours after marrying the beautiful Angela Vicario, everyone agrees, Bayardo San Roman returned his bride in disgrace to her parents. Her distraught family forced her to name her first lover; and her twin brothers announced their intention to murder Santiago Nasar for dishonoring their sister. Yet if everyone knew the murder was going to happen, why did no one intervene to stop it? The more that is learned, the less is understood, as the story races to its inexplicable conclusion.

Maugham, Somerset: An Appointment in Samarra

It's literally only a paragraph long, just read it

McGovern, Kate: Fear of Missing Out

Everyone has a fear of missing out on something―a party, a basketball game, a hangout after school. But what if it’s life that you’ll be missing out on?

When Astrid learns that her cancer has returned, she hears about a radical technology called cryopreservation that may allow her to have her body frozen until a future time when―and if―a cure is available. With her boyfriend, Mohit, and her best friend, Chloe, Astrid goes on a road trip in search of that possibility. To see if it’s real. To see if it’s worth it. For fear of missing out on everything.

Moore, Christopher: A Dirty Job

Charlie Asher is a pretty normal guy with a normal life, married to a bright and pretty woman who actually loves him for his normalcy. They're even about to have their first child. Yes, Charlie's doing okay—until people start dropping dead around him, and everywhere he goes a dark presence whispers to him from under the streets. Charlie Asher, it seems, has been recruited for a new position: as Death.

It's a dirty job. But, hey! Somebody's got to do it.

Moreno, Gus: This Thing Between Us

It was Vera's idea to buy the Itza. The "world's most advanced smart speaker!" didn't interest Thiago, but Vera thought it would be a bit of fun for them amidst all the strange occurrences happening in the condo. It made things worse. The cold spots and scratching in the walls were weird enough, but peculiar packages started showing up at the house—who ordered industrial lye? Then there was the eerie music at odd hours, Thiago waking up to Itza projecting light shows in an empty room.

It was funny and strange right up until Vera was killed, and Thiago's world became unbearable. Pundits and politicians all looking to turn his wife's death into a symbol for their own agendas. A barrage of texts from her well-meaning friends about letting go and moving on. Waking to the sound of Itza talking softly to someone in the living room…

The only thing left to do was get far away from Chicago. Away from everything and everyone. A secluded cabin in Colorado seemed like the perfect place to hole up with his crushing grief. But soon Thiago realizes there is no escape—not from his guilt, not from his simmering rage, and not from the evil hunting him, feeding on his grief, determined to make its way into this world.

Morris, Jonathan: Festival of Death

Synopsis: "The Beautiful Death. The ultimate theme-park ride. For twenty galactic credits, you can find out what it's like to be dead.

But something has gone wrong. Visitors expecting a sightseeing tour of the afterlife have been transformed into mindless zombies, set on a killing rampage.

The TARDIS arrives in the aftermath of the disaster and, to the Doctor's baffled delight, he is immediately congratulated for saving the population from certain and terrible destruction. The only problem is, he hasn't actually done it yet.

Aided and abetted by a drug-addled hippie lizard, a hard-hitting investigative reporter and a suicidal ship's computer, the Doctor has no choice but to travel back in time and discover exactly how he became a hero.

And then he finds out. He did it by sacrificing his life."

Why it's End: A theme park ride that simulates the experience of being dead. Wow. And something went wrong? Crazy. But yeah, there's a lot to do with death and fate in here -- the Doctor is apparently fated to die at the end of his adventure, the crew of the ship being fated to die

Ohland, Emma K.: Funeral Girl

Sixteen-year-old Georgia Richter feels conflicted about the funeral home her parents run--especially because she has the ability to summon ghosts. With one touch of any body that passes through Richter Funeral Home, she can awaken the spirit of the departed. With one more touch, she makes the spirit disappear, to a fate that remains mysterious to Georgia. To cope with her deep anxiety about death, she does her best to fulfill the final wishes of the deceased whose ghosts she briefly revives.

Then her classmate Milo's body arrives at Richter--and his spirit wants help with unfinished business, forcing Georgia to reckon with her relationship to grief and mortality.

Piven, Joshua & David Borgenicht: The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook

A handy little manual that shows all the ways that you can survive the worst possible situations. And now that you have the Leitner edition, you'll be putting those skills to good use almost constantly, as every deadly thing described in those pages begins to manifest in your life.

Poe, Edgar Allan: Annabel Lee

Like a lot of the Edgar Allan Poems, this is heavily concerned with the death of young love, and a desire to be reunited in the tomb. Link: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44885/annabel-lee

Poe, Edgar Allan: The Raven

"The Raven" A narrative poem by Edgar Allan Poe. Published originally in January 1845, the poem has a musical quality with stylized language and a supernatural atmosphere. It speaks of a mysterious talking raven's visit to a distraught lover, depicting the man's slow fall into madness. The lover is lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. Sitting on a bust of "Pallas", the raven seems to have a purpose of further instigating his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". This poem makes good use of a number of folk and classical references.

Pratchett, Terry: Mort

"‘YOU CANNOT INTERFERE WITH FATE. WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE WHO SHOULD LIVE AND WHO SHOULD DIE?’

Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job.

Death is the Grim Reaper of the Discworld, a black-robed skeleton with a scythe who ushers souls into the next world. He is also fond of cats and endlessly baffled by humanity. Soon Death is yearning to experience what humanity really has to offer, but to do that, he’ll need to hire some help.

It’s an offer Mort can’t refuse. As Death’s apprentice he’ll have free board, use of the company horse – and being dead isn’t compulsory. It’s a dream job – until Mort falls in love with Death’s daughter, Ysabell, and discovers that your boss can be a killer on your love life . . ."

Pratchett, Terry: Pyramids

"Being trained by the Assassin's Guild in Ankh-Morpork did not fit Teppic for the task assigned to him by fate. He inherited the throne of the desert kingdom of Djelibeybi rather earlier than he expected (his father wasn’t too happy about it either), but that was only the beginning of his problems..."

A prince taught in the school of assassins goes to claim the throne of Djelibeybi. A country that is extremely End-coded culturally, and in reality ruled not by its kings but by Dios who is an End avatar if there ever was one.

Pushkin, Alexander: The Queen of Spades

Hermann, an officer in the Imperial Russian Army, constantly watches the other officers gamble, but never plays himself. One night a friend tells him a story about how his grandmother, a countess, lost a fortune at faro, and then won it back with the secret of the three winning cards. Hermann becomes obsessed with obtaining the secret.

Herman gains access to the countess' (now 87 years old) home through an acquaintance, Lizaveta, and there Hermann accosts the countess, demanding the secret. She tells him that story was a joke, but Hermann persists and threatens her with a pistol. She dies of fright. Lizaveta helps him flee the crime scene.

At the countess' funeral Hermann is terrified to see the countess open her eyes in the coffin and look at him. Later that night, her ghost appears to him and names the secret three cards (three, seven, and ace). It tells him he must play just once each night and then orders him to marry Lizaveta. Hermann takes his entire savings to gamble at faro for high stakes. On the first night, he bets it all on the three and wins. On the second night, he wins on the seven. On the third night, he bets on the ace—but when the cards are shown, he finds he has bet on the Queen of Spades, not the ace, and he loses everything. When the Queen appears to wink at him, he is astonished by her remarkable resemblance to the old countess, and flees in terror.

In the end Hermann goes mad and is committed to an asylum. He answers no questions, but merely mutters with unusual rapidity: "Three, seven, ace! Three, seven, queen!"

This story has the end's favoured motifs: gambling, death, dreams, ghosts. Hermann tried to cheat fate but failed.

Rulfo, Juan: Pedro Páramo

A masterpiece of the surreal, this stunning novel from Mexico depicts a man’s strange quest for his heritage. Beseeched by his dying mother to locate his father, Pedro Páramo, whom they fled from years ago, Juan Preciado sets out for Comala. Comala is a town alive with whispers and shadows—a place seemingly populated only by memory and hallucinations. Built on the tyranny of the Páramo family, its barren and broken-down streets echo the voices of tormented spirits sharing the secrets of the past.

Sebold, Alice: The Lovely Bones

It tells the story of a young girl named Susie Salmon who is brutally murdered. From her unique perspective in the afterlife, Susie watches as her family and friends struggle to cope with her death and unravel the mystery surrounding it.

Shusterman, Neal: Antsy Does Time

Fueled by friendship and sympathy, Antsy Bonano signs a month of his life over to his dying classmate Gunnar Umlaut. Soon everyone at school follows suit, giving new meaning to the idea of living on borrowed time. But does Gunnar really have six months to live, or is news of his imminent death greatly exaggerated? When a family member suffers a heart attack after donating two years to Gunnar, Antsy wonders if he has tempted fate by playing God...

Shusterman, Neal: Scythe

A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now Scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control.

Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a Scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

Spark, Muriel: Memento Mori

In late 1950s London, something uncanny besets a group of elderly friends: an insinuating voice on the telephone reminds each: "Remember you must die." Their geriatric feathers are soon thoroughly ruffled, and many an old unsavory secret is dusted off.

Stine, R.L.: Checkout Time at the Dead-End Hotel

Choose Your Own Adventure books are inherently End-coded; your choices drive your fate along, and no matter what you choose, you will eventually reach an ending. I think that goes double for a CYOA book about murderous ghosts.

Stone, Jon: The Monster at the End of this Book

Grover spends the story dreading what lurks at the end of the book, much like many of us spend our life dreading its end. Grover tries in vain to stop us from bringing him closer to the book's conclusion, but for him the pages pass as inevitably as time does for us. At the end of the actual book the monster turns out to be Grover all along, but in the Leitner version Grover's fear would turn out to be justified.

Stoppard, Tom: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

"Hamlet told from the worm's-eye view of two minor characters, bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Echoes of Waiting for Godot resound, reality and illusion mix, and where fate leads heroes to a tragic but inevitable end."

Two guys hanging around till the only relevant thing about them, their death, happens. And they will keep dying forever.

Stroud, Jonathan: Lockwood and Co. series

Death permeates the alternate British society of the Lockwood and Co. series. Beginning five decades before the events of the first book, the existence of ghosts became undeniable as an epidemic of deadly hauntings began. Dubbed “The Problem”, it has only gotten worse with time, with the number, strength and range of the hauntings continuing to escalate. Only children are able to detect these dangerous visitors from the other side, who can kill with a single touch. This psychic Talent fades to nothing as they age, leaving adults basically helpless when it comes to detecting and avoiding ghosts until it's too late. As adults hide inside during the night curfew, children as young as 8 are forced to act as Night Watch or as Agents who risk their lives to fight off ghosts. Mortality rates are high and those who do survive often go on to become supervisors of younger Agents, forced into the position of sending children into mortal danger and being powerless to help them. This is a society dealing with basically the aftermath of an End Ritual and/or being in an End Domain, where death and the fear of death is the major driving force for most people. This fixation on death isn’t just only fear for some; there is also a thriving black market for Sources - objects (usually human remains) that a ghost is tied to and allows them passage into the living world from the Other Side.

MASSIVE spoilers for the final book. Seriously, don’t look if you plan on reading this series (which you absolutely should and also check out the incredibly well done TV adaptation):

*Turns out that the origin of this ghost epidemic was caused by the actions of the supposed “Hero” of The Problem, Marissa Fittes, who was the first one to figure out and codify (and profit from) most defences against ghosts. Her expeditions to the Other Side caused the dead to stir and make their way to the land of the living. She was obsessed with the potential properties of ectoplasm, the substance that ghosts are made of and what makes them so deadly, including immortality. Her frequent incursions into the Other Side to harvest and utilise ectoplasm, continued to greatly escalate The Problem, which only served to increase her wealth and fame as the head of the prestigious Fittes Agency. Despite these constant trips to the realm of the dead rapidly ageing her, her experiments with ectoplasm allowed her spirit to possess the body of her granddaughter on her so-called deathbed. Now posing as her granddaughter, she continues her quest for immortality, escalating The Problem even further, which only increases her fame, fortune and power, giving her more resources to exploit both the dead and the living for her personal gain.

von Goethe, Johann Wolfgang: Erlkönig

A haunting poem about an anxious young boy who is being carried at night by his father on horseback. To where is not spelled out; the German word Hof has a rather broad meaning of "yard", "courtyard", "farm", or (royal) "court". The opening line tells that the time is late and that it is windy.

As the poem unfolds, the son claims to see and hear the "Erlkönig" (Erl-King, lit. 'alder-king'). His father claims to not see or hear the creature, and he attempts to comfort his son, asserting natural explanations for what the child sees – a wisp of fog, rustling leaves, shimmering willows.

The Erl-King attempts to lure the child into joining him, promising amusement, rich clothes, and the attentions of his daughters. Finally, the Erl-King declares that he will take the child by force. The boy shrieks that he has been attacked, spurring the father to ride faster to the Hof. Upon reaching the destination, the child is already dead.

Vonnegut, Kurt: Slaughterhouse-Five

Mostly it's about the non-linearity and the time-fuckery, especially experiencing death well before it actually happens.

Webb, Catherine: Mirror Dreams

"Every dream you've ever had, and every dream yet to come, exists in the Kingdoms of the Void. Every nightmare, too. Because there has to be balance; it's the rules. But the Lords of Nightkeep aren't big on rules; only Conquest, Fear, and Eternal Darkness for All. It takes a powerful wizard like Laenan Kite to keep them in check. But Kite has other worries, and Nightkeep is growing strong. Its Lords hunger for power. And they've turned their gaze towards earth."

Dreams are extremely End-coded and this book takes place in the dreamland. Also certain revelations about one of the characters make this even more End related.

Spoilers: Renna a dreamer turns out to be in a coma in the real world facing the very real possibility that she will get taken off life support.

Wilde, Oscar: The Picture of Dorian Gray

Upon seeing his own striking portrait Dorian Gray is bewitched and offers his soul if only the painting will age while he remains eternally youthful. Believing himself incorruptible, Dorian indulges in a life of pleasure and excess. But what has become of his portrait?

Wolff, Tobias: Bullet in the Brain

The story is about an angry and bitter book critic trapped at a bank during a robbery; when he ridicules the robbers, they shoot him fatally in the head. The rest of the story takes in place in the last few moments before he dies.

Zusak, Markus: The Book Thief

This book is narrated by death. Not a god of death, not some kind of herald of it, the abstract concept of death itself. And death permeates the entire story. The book begins with our protagonist, a young girl living smack-dab in the middle of Nazi Germany name Leisel Meminger watching her younger brother Werner die on their way to their new foster home, and it only gets worse from there. Leisel continually strives to save herself and others from the inevitable destruction and end that awaits them, predominantly, of course, by stealing books, but also eventually by harboring a Jewish man named Max Vandenburg, and it is consistently not enough. I'll spare you most of the details in the hopes of you reading it yourself, but the book ends with our protagonist's home being bombed and the deaths of her foster parents and the boy she loves. Leisel herself dies of old age decades later, and death's final words to her (and arguably to the readers themselves) are "I am haunted by humans".

El Museu d’Art Contemporani Vicente Aguilera Cerni de Vilafamés, en colaboración con la Galería Espai Nivi y comisariada por el profesor de la Universitat Politècnica de València Alejandro Mañas García, presenta la exposición «Diálogo de dos Colecciones. Espai Nivi · MACVAC».

Esta unión estratégica entre dos instituciones apasionadas por el arte contemporáneo no solo destaca el valor de ambas colecciones, sino que también resalta la vitalidad de la cultura ejercida desde

fuera de los espacios centrales. La exposición «Diálogo de dos Colecciones» celebra los quince años de Espai Nivi, una galería cuya valiosa contribución ha trascendido lo local para alcanzar proyección nacional e internacional. Su colección, cuidadosamente curada y en constante crecimiento, reúne obras de renombrados artistas de diversos estilos y medios, capturando la esencia misma del arte contemporáneo y ofreciendo una visión única de su evolución.

Esta exposición conjunta presenta una selección de obras de pequeño formato de la colección Mariano Poyatos y Filomena Lorenzo en diálogo con piezas del Museo de Vilafamés. Este encuentro entre las obras estratégicamente dispuestas a lo largo del recorrido del museo, genera un diálogo fascinante.

Los diálogos están formados por los siguientes artistas: Jaume Rocamora · Myriam Jiménez // Ouka Leele · Javier Mariscal // Amelia Peláez · Ramón Roig // Nadezhda Udaltsova · Katarina Balunova // José María Cruz Novillo · Alexandra Knie // Cullén (Carmen Pérez-Seoane) · Alejandro Mañas García // Antoni Tàpies · Natha Piña // Teresa Gancedo · Xesco Mercé // Alfredo Alcaín · Art al Quadrat // Joan Moreno Alarcó · Din Matamoro // Luis Ferrer Jorge · Mónica Jover // Ose/Huz · Mar Vicente // Joan Castejón · Carmen Puchol // Man Ray · Laura Silleras // Manuel Castañón · Pepe Beas // Cartier-Bresson · Inma Liñana // Angiola Bonnani · Marip Guiennot // Ángel Duarte · Juan Ortí // Jean-Pierre Nicolini · Mariano Poyatos // Pilar Bañuelos · Rafael Galindo // Joan Tosca Cuquerella · Ismael Teira // Karim Rashid · Ángel Garraza // Fernando Sánchez Buenache · Manuel Gamonal // Ismael Smith · Concha Ros.

Year of Lists

July Books

She a long one

I also left this so late, I don't remember much

The Trespasser by Tana French - don't remember anything about this, just that I enjoyed speeding through it. I think Tana French's work has that quality of quiet enjoyment to it. A small break from reality - so a 3*? (that's my goodreads rating anw)

Μαμά by Μαργαρίτα Καραπάνου *4.7/5 - this, I do remember. It's a quick read, much of Karapanou is; none of it is light and this one is darker and more complex than most. It's a melee of the writer's relationship with/memory of her mother. Vignettes, impressions, memories, snippets of a life lived, felt or imagined. Karapanou was a remarkable artist, and boy, could she weave a sentence.

I'm Not Here to Give a Speech by Gabriel García Márquez *4.5/5 - delightful; just a neat little collection of speeches. Isn't it funny how gifted some people are at things they don't really enjoy doing?

American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang *5/5 - nothing to see here. Love all around. <3 <3

Tokyo Express by Seichō Matsumoto *3.5/5 - this was yummy. If you find oldish, matter-of-fact writing, noir-type police procedurals with limited but astute action delicious, this is for you.

Girl Goddess Queen by Bea Fitzgerald *4/5 - okay. Hear me out.

*sidenote* This is Lore Olympus in novel form. So much so that I wondered if Bea Fitzgerald wasn't a pen name for Rachel Smythe and vice versa.

Was it repetitive, occasionally annoyingly so? Yes. Did I think it could have benefitted from better editing? Yes. Did I obsess over it and think about the characters and the slow-burn romance of it all for at least a week? Yes. Did I buy Bea Fitzgerald's new novel a day into publication and can't wait to read it but I'm travelling a lot and didn't want to carry it cause it's huge? Yes. Did it make me hyperfixate on finding the epic romance of the decade - the century even, the book that makes your knees tremble, to no avail? Yes.

I loved this. I loved this so so much, flaws and all.

*sidenote, again* Madeline Miller rewriting Persephone too - would love to read that version

The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo - like a 3*. It's not something that sticks but it's readable and you do care when you're reading it. One thing I can say for certain, I was sure I wanted to read more Leigh Bardugo, and I have, since reading this, spent a lot of time on deciding what that'll be. (Six of Crows, probably this Autumn, early Winter)

Little Rot by Akwaeke Emezi *3.7/5 - It's a good narrative from a very talented writer/artist, whose work I've admired from the get-go and will continue to consume either til the end, or til the potentially inevitable decline. The .7 purely on talent.

These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong - deets on this with the sequel which I read in August - and it's a lot

A work of project codes. The work is accompanied by a 90 mm lens diameter (Imagen digital. + lupa Ø 90 mm.) series of 5.

(México) El “Benjamín” del Floresmagonismo y sus relaciones políticas.

Interesante escrito histórico sobre la memoria de los anarquistas magoneros y uno de los tantxs que traicionaron el proyecto anarquista revolucionario de ese tiempo: Nicolas T. Bernal, quien en su buenismo solo ayudo a consolidar la instutucionalidad estatal y desvirtuar y malentender la ruptura anárquica. Escrito realizado por B.A.

Se acerca otro 21 de noviembre y seguramente ya se realizan los preparativos para conmemorar esta fecha desde el aparato oficial.

Ya ha comenzado el ex – CEU y vocero de la prejidenjia, Jesús Ramírez Cuevas, (responsable de la estrategia propagandística del gobierno) porque el pasado 28 de agosto, desde su cuenta twitter, hizo un comentario a manera de “homenaje” por el natalicio de Práxedis Guerrero.

Ramírez, que se reclamaba del “anarco”zapatismo (y que se presume, es nieto de un integrante del ejercito libertador del sur) hace no mucho tiempo, colaboraba con el EZLN a través de medios libres y como corresponsal de La Jornada; trabajos periodísticos de los que posteriormente se publicaron libros y documentales sobre los neo-zapatistas. Después en el 2006 se integra a la campaña electoral Pejista y funda un órgano de propaganda al que bautiza “Regeneración”, plagiando el nombre del histórico periódico magonista pretendiéndose al PEJE y su partido MORENA (en alusión también a la virgen de Guadalupe) como continuador del Floresmagonismo.1

Obviamente ya en el Poder, Ramírez Cuevas es uno de los principales responsables de las campañas anti-anarquistas, utilizando la imagen de Flores Magón, al que muestran como un periodista pacifista con el objetivo de minimizar y reprobar el antagonismo anarquista. (¿Nacho, quien es el policía?)

“Homenajeando” a Práxedis este empleaducho pejista, demuestra que sigue con la mirada puesta en el anarquismo, para demeritar las manifestaciones violentas, sin considerar que tanto Práxedis como Ricardo llamaron al alzamiento, a las armas, a la violencia.

Pero lo anterior no es nuevo, en varios momentos, algún gobierno en turno a querido montarse en la vertiente más radical de la historia de antes-durante y pos revolución mexicana, para monopolizar un discurso y llevar a cabo acciones desde el gobierno como supuesta idea revolucionaria.

Como el caso de “El mensajero del magonismo”, Nicolás T. Bernal, a quién Armando List lo llamó “el Benjamin de los magonistas”.1 Nico, no solo fue amigo de Ricardo, Ethel y compañía, sino que al finalizar la contienda, se relacionó con la basura política; tras huir de USA y llegar a México en 1921, contactó con los diputados Soto y Gama y Octavio Paz (padre del poetucho) para intervenir en un pleno de la Cámara, con el objetivo de la liberación de Ricardo y Librado pero solo “logro” obtener una pensión de apoyo, misma que ambos rechazaron, cabe destacar que tanto Librado y Ricardo asumían la consecuencia de su anarquismo, por ello no solo negaron la ayuda económica sino también la intervención del gobierno mexicano para su liberación, algo que por los hechos y escritos de estos, Nico no comprendió y por ello recurrió a medios oficiales-legales.

Pero Nico siguió insistiendo y posteriormente pidió apoyo a José Vasconcelos quién le sugirió entrevistarse con Plutarco Elías Calles y Adolfo de la Huerta, con el objetivo de liberar a los magonistas presos en USA, y además con la ayuda de dirigentes (¿?) de varios sindicatos de México se estableció una comisión para dicho objetivo, que consistió en que le otorgaran permiso para la publicación de la obra del Grupo Cultural Ricardo Flores Magón en los Talleres Gráficos de la Nación, donde terminaría laborando en lo que organizaba la documentación magonista que contenía el archivo de la SRE. Posteriormente constituyó el fondo bibliográfico y documental del magonismo en la Biblioteca lerdo de Tejada con apoyo de la secretaria de hacienda.

Nico menciona sus relaciones con los políticos en sus Memorias, y quién ofrece más detalles sobre estas relaciones es el excelente trabajo de Biografía de Ethel D. Turner, realizado por Magaly Vázquez, quien certeramente indica:

Para la política revolucionaria, el hecho de que Flores Magón fuera un declarado anarquista al tiempo de su muerte no fue impedimento para insertarlo dentro del discurso triunfalista del Estado.

En esta investigación, Magaly aporta (entre muchas cosas más) que, tras la llegada de Ethel a México en 1955, Nico fue quien la contacto con Baca Calderón, entonces senador en el gobierno del presidente Ruiz Cortines y con Salvador Azuela, entonces director del recién fundado INHERM, organismo con la política editorial del gobierno; Nico incluso le ofreció intentar lograr una pensión gubernamental para Ethel. La visita de Ethel fue para colaborar en su versión sobre los hechos de Baja California de 1911 y posteriormente en una reunión con Lázaro Cardenas en Michoacán, le ofreció financiar sus gastos para que Ethel publicara la biografía de Ricardo y el PLM, con tropiezos y “correcciones” (para que no resultara tan radical) con el gobierno michoacano, 4 años después salió a la luz el libro de Ethel.

Regresando a Nico, considero que el origen oficialista que religiosamente hacen cada 21 de noviembre año con año, en conmemoración de la muerte (asesinato) de Ricardo, fue porque además de los ex – magonistas que tuvieron cargos políticos, Nicolas Tomas Bernal, se prestó por su condición de “amigo íntimo de Ricardo” y “único sobreviviente del magonismo” para que desde el Gobierno se rindiera homenaje, desde todas esas relaciones con personajes politiqueros, actos ajenos al anarquismo y que secundó indirectamente, Enrique Flores Magón quien tuvo algunos cargos gubernamentales menores, fundo un organismo de veteranos de la revolución para recibir pensión gubernamental e incluso fue una pieza importante en la fundación del Partido Comunista Cubano en 1925, como enviado especial por el PCM para ayudar a organizar el evento y como asesor técnico.

Pero no todo queda en esto, María Garone evidencía el pleito entre Nico y Ma. Brousse, por los derechos de la obra de Ricardo:

…un intenso pleito sobre los derechos legales y literarios de sus textos (de RFM). En el mensaje de febrero de 1924 en que queda claro el origen de las publicaciones del Grupo Cultural Ricardo Flores Magón, Rivera advertía a Bernal y su Grupo que María Brousse, compañera sentimental de Ricardo había mandado una carta al Presidente Obregón pidiendo que impida la publicación y circulación, en México, de los escritos de Flores Magón. En mayo de 1923 Librado Rivera le escribe a Nicolás T. Bernal que es un disparate intentar detener la publicación de esas obras de Práxedis G. Guerrero y Ricardo Flores Magón, porque se trata de la “reproducción de artículos” que ellos difundieron en Revolución, Regeneración y Punto Rojo, proyectos editoriales que fueron sostenidos por los trabajadores para beneficio de los trabajadores.

Lo que significa que de los pocos magonistas que sobrevivieron en la posrevolución, siguieron firmes en la idea “anarcomagonista”, como Librado Rivera, Blas Lara o Fernando Palomares.

El comodismo de Nicolás con el gobierno fue tal, que en 1979 recibió una medalla de oro de parte del entonces presidente José López Portillo.

En el mismo año, Nicolás T. Bernal agradece al Gobernador de Guanajuato, Luis Humberto Ducoing Gamba, por la publicación de un libro, facsimilar de REGENERACION en 1979.

Este mismo gobernador, dos años antes, pirateo el libro Artículos de combate de Práxedis G. Guerrero de Ediciones Antorcha, pero con el título de “Vocación de Libertad” e introducción del “anarco”priista José Muñoz Cota, ambos salieron el mismo año, pero diferente mes.

Antorcha dice sobre esto:

…además de firmar como el grupo editor, nos aventamos el puntacho de enfatizar: el grupo editor no se reserva ninguna clase de derechos, leyenda con la que patentizábamos nuestra ideología ácrata. Y … sucedió lo que jamás esperábamos que sucediera: el gobierno del Estado de Guanajuato quizá se tomó al pie de la letra nuestra declaración de fe anarquista y … ¡pácatelas! se aventó un piratazo de nuestra edición. En efecto, bajo el título de Vocación de libertad, y sin hacer la menor mención de nuestro trabajo, se piratearon nuestra edición de Artículos de combate con nuestras notas y nuestra cronología.

Algunas anécdotas

En el testimonio de Antonio Escobosa -quien conoció cuando este era un niño- dice que su abuela recordaba:

Le cambiaba las sábanas, lo bañaba, le cambiaba de ropa y platicaba con él. Tenía Nicolás una sobrina, cuyo nombre no recuerdo. A ella le era —o al menos así me parecía— indiferente su tío. Iba muy de vez en cuando a verlo. Además, Nicolás tuvo un problema muy similar al de Nellie Campobello: la servidumbre abusiva. Julia se llamaba la sirvienta que luego nos enteramos maltrataba a Nico y poco a poco intentó tomar el control de la casa y de los bienes de Nicolás.1 Por fortuna, no se le hizo.” “Recuerdo, al final de sus días, cómo le obsequió una medallota a mi abuela este Nicolás, no recuerdo cuál fue, pero era meritoria por su servicio a la patria. Mi Tita, clásico de ella, se la entregó a la sobrina de Nicolás a la muerte de éste, para que no fueran a pensar que era una interesada.

Un par de compañeros, Victor García y Fernando Villanueva, fueron quienes llevaron al hospital militar a Nicolás, cuando este se puso grave y posteriormente falleció en 1987.

Carlos Beas en su ponencia durante el evento denominado “a 50 años del 68” en el local de la FAM el 29sep2018, mencionó que cuando visitó alguna vez en su casa de Av. Coyoacán a Nicolás, vio como este, utilizaba los libros del Grupo Cultural Ricardo Flores Magón como combustible para su Boiler.

NOTAS

1 Así se indica en la introducción de Memorias de Nicolas T. Bernal, CEHSMO 1982. México.

2 En las jornadas magonistas del 2010, un grupo de compañerxs manifestamos nuestro desacuerdo por la invitación de Ignacio Pineda a su amiguete (de tiempos de la revista trostkista La Guillotina) Ramirez Cuevas, quien sería ponente en el Foro Alicia, en el que realizamos un acto de protesta en dicho local, y debido al ruido previo de Sabotaje y Boicot a Ramirez Cuevas, este no se presentó.

En el post de la siguiente liga, en los comentarios se exponen las cuartillas distribuidas y textos leídos en el acto de protesta contra la usurpación del nombre Regeneración por Ramirez Cuevas, El Peje y su “movimiento”:

https://zapateando2.wordpress.com/2010/02/28/ricardo-flores-magon-y-amlo-personajes-antagonicos/

3 Y como perla, en esta anécdota, se habla de la SERVIDUMBRE de Nicolás, que “se aprovecha”. Preferiría que la sirvienta se hubiera quedado con todo y a esta expropiación sí que le rendiría homenaje.

adria arjona, 32, cis female, she/her. 🗽 looks like that’s BEATRIZ GARCÍA reporting for duty. they’re originally from SAN JUAN , PUERTO RICO , so i wonder if working as a DETECTIVE for THE SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT ever gets old. anyway , i heard that they’re EMPATHETIC but also kind of INDECISIVE , which is why i guess they always remind me of THE SMELL OF COFFEE IN THE MORNING , RAMEN NOODLE CUPS , OVERSIZED SWEATSHIRTS.

hello !! it’s your friendly neighborhood dumbass , lara / admin l !! i’m so excited to plot and write with you ALL so i’ll try to keep this short , but informative. like this post or send me a message if and we’ll get to plotting !!

→ 𝕙𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪.

( tw: very brief & vague mention of attempted sexual assault )

beatriz was born in san juan , puerto rico , the youngest of two siblings. her older brother is riker’s c.o. eddie garcía ( l&o: svu , s15e06 — yes i rewatched the episode today and decided to make some changes based on the fact that eddie and bea have the same last name and are both puerto rican ) , but they weren’t raised together.

the reason for that being that bea was not planned , about 15 years younger than eddie , and their mother , carmen garcía , didn’t have the money to raise two kids.

bea’s father , guillermo sandoval ( not eddie’s father ) , was an old flame of carmen’s she reunited with during a holiday visit to puerto rico. when he learned of her pregnancy , he jumped at the opportunity to raise their child. he loved the idea of having a baby girl ( despite not being exactly ready for one , but more on that later ). so carmen went back to puerto rico , gave birth , and once she recovered enough to travel , went back to new york.

bea stayed with guillermo , who quicklly realized he wasn’t really fit to raise his daughter , so she was passed on to her grandmother , carmen’s mother.

guille didn’t exactly ghost , though. he was around , but he wasn’t so much a father as he was someone who would pick her up once every couple of weeks to take her to the park or get ice cream.

when bea was around ten , her grandmother passed away. bea had two options: she could stay in puerto rico and live with her dad , or she could make the move to the bronx , now that her older brother was out of the house , had his own job , and helping their mom.

her parents let her choose , so she went with the latter.

she didn’t really know her mother and brother , so it took some time getting used to , but it was clear they all loved each other very much.

she and eddie don’t care about the fact that they don’t share a father ; that’s irrelevant to them. they’re siblings , simple as that , and they both use their mother’s last name.

eddie was very protective of his little sister , so bea grew up a bit on the sheltered side. this definitely made her a little naive , but that’s something that changed with time.

she had a lot of interests growing up , none of which really stuck. she would pick up hobbies , only to get bored shortly after. the only one she really maintained ( enough to consider making a career out of it ) was ballet.

all through middle school and high school , beatriz spent all her free time in the dance studio. the garcías didn’t have a lot of money , so bea helped around the studio in exchange for classes. she tutored kids at her school so she could pay for slippers , leotards , tights.

truth be told , she was never more than an okay dancer. she was good , just not great. not outstanding. kind of average. still , she loved it.

and then one day , she didn’t. just like every other hobby and obsession picked up in the past , eventually she lost interest.

she knew she wasn’t talented enough to “ make it ” as a ballerina , so why bother ? she stopped going to classes , donated her pointe shoes , and focused instead on graduating and going to college.

she was smart , always had been. she’d always been bookish ; whenever she wasn’t at the dance studio ( before giving up ballet , that is ) , she was at the library.

when college acceptance letters started rolling around , bea earned herself a full scholarship to hudson university.

she started out as an english major , but of course. she struggled to find something that truly called to her. she then changed her major to journalism. when she wasn’t so sure about that , she audited a few business courses. then she switched over to psychology.

like many of her classmates , she developed a little crush on one of her professors. he was young , he was hip , he rolled his eyes when he talked about freud. it was a completely harmless crush.

and then he asked her out on a date. he didn’t phrase it like that , but they both knew. and while she knew she should’ve said no , bea accepted. but then things took a turn she didn’t agree with , he got a little handsier than she was comfortable with , and before things got out of hand , she got herself out of there.

refusing to see herself as a victim , she didn’t do anything about it. didn’t report it , didn’t press charges , didn’t even tell anyone about what happened ( ‘ nothing even happened ’ , she would rationalize over and over again ).

needless to say , she dropped that course and changed her major once more. this was the last time.

criminal justice was a last-ditch effort to actually earn a degree. surprisingly , it worked out. she wasn’t sure it was her calling at first , but as she got herself through the police academy and her first few years as a cop , she started to feel like maybe this was what she was always meant to do.

once she made detective , she requested to be placed in the special victims unit right away. there wasn’t much thought put into the decision , it was more of a gut feeling. over time , she’s been learning to trust those more and more.

she’s been at svu for about three years now , learning that sometimes a “ calling ” isn’t so much a call , but more like a letter that gets lost in the mail and finally reaches you a few years later.

→ 𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕪.

some more facts about bea !!

she’s a libra !

she loves dogs , and would like every single dog in the world to know that she would absolutely die for them.

she has a bulldog named bustelo , he’s a rescue.

she can’t live without coffee , but she’ll avoid instant coffee whenever she can. she prefers to make it herself , so she usually brings a thermos into work.

she can make some fantastic coffee , but can’t cook to save her life. lives on takeout and ramen noodles.

loves big , oversized sweatshirts. as soon as she gets home from a long day at work, the first thing she does is strip down and slip into a nice , comfy , familiar sweatshirt.

she's not very good at following advice. but she’s also a libra , so she’s the kind of person who’ll ask for your opinion on something , pretend to actually consider it , go ahead with whatever she was thinking of doing in the first place , and then pretend to be shocked when her actions have consequences.

she can definitely be a little pretentious. definitely romanticizes things a lot.

kind of a hopeless romantic with commitment issues.

despite how dark and grim reality of her work , she’s a generally hopeful person. she still has faith in humanity.

big bisexual disaster.

here’s her pinterest board !!

→ 𝕔𝕠𝕟𝕟𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟𝕤.

let me preface this by saying i am open to absolutely anything. so what i’m listing here aren’t really wanted connections i’d like to fill , but just ideas to get the ball rolling ? and then we can do whatever we want with that. go wild.

friends !

childhood friends ! other kids who grew up in the bronx !

police academy buddies !

coworkers ! obviously , there’s already a few of these , but i’d love to talk dynamics ! maybe they get along great , maybe not so great , maybe they’re always butting heads , have different approaches when it comes to investigating , the possibilities are endless !

flings ! hookups ! one-night stands ! exes ! anything !

come at me !!
